Hi, my name is Tyra! Caring for children has always been a part of my life, and it's something that brings me so much joy. I have 9 years of experience in childcare, and over that time l've learned how important it is to not only teach skills like manners and adaptability, but also to create a fun, safe, and loving environment where children can truly thrive. With infants, 7 I have years of hands-on experience making sure their needs are met with warmth and consistency - from feeding and diaper changes to tummy time and naps. For older children, I love turning schoolwork into something engaging and enjoyable, while also encouraging creativity, motor skill development, and confidence in their own abilities. One of my favorite parts of childcare is helping children work through their feelings, whether it's frustration with homework or navigating big emotions. I always approach these moments Read more calmly and patiently, guiding them through the process so they feel understood and supported. For families, I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping and meal prep, and I always aim to make home life a little easier. I'm COVID-19 vaccinated, pet-friendly, LGBTQIA+ friendly, and even a beginner in Korean and Italian! With my own reliable transportation,' ready to start right away. Most of all, I believe happiness is key - for children and parents alike - and I do my best to make sure everyone feels cared for, safe, and valued.
